INTRO (low, restrained) They think silence means weakness. They confuse calm with empty. They never notice the ones still moving. That’s Shadow. ⸻ VERSE 1 (Rap – calm, deliberate) I stopped talking when I realized Most people listen just to reply I started watching patterns instead Who stayed solid, who switched when it bled I remember grinding with nothing to show No applause, no sign that I’d grow Just a voice in my head saying “stay” Even when quitting felt easier that day I learned discipline when motivation died Learned how to move without ego or pride No rush, no noise, no scene Just consistency turning me mean They didn’t see the work I put in They just saw results and filled in the end That’s fine—some stories are meant To be lived quietly by Shadow, not explained ⸻ PRE-CHORUS (tight, controlled) I don’t announce my steps I don’t threaten my plans If I’m quiet, understand I’m becoming more than I am ⸻ CHORUS (Metal – heavy, commanding) 🔥 SHADOW MOVES IN SILENCE 🔥 While the world stays loud 🔥 NO FLEX — JUST VIOLENCE 🔥 In the work I put down From the dark to the discipline, built by demand I don’t speak—I advance 🔥 SHADOW MOVES IN SILENCE 🔥 Then I strike when I stand ⸻ VERSE 2 (Rap – sharper, colder) I don’t need to be seen to exist I don’t need approval to persist I’ve been overlooked, underestimated That’s exactly how I elevated I’ve cut habits, cut ties, cut doubt Cut versions of me that held me down I don’t hate who I used to be But he couldn’t survive where Shadow needs to be I protect my peace like it’s sacred ground Not everyone gets to be around If I’m distant, it’s not disrespect It’s me choosing growth over stress I learned energy’s more than words Some smiles hide envy and nerves I stay sharp, I stay awake Not paranoid—just not naïve, okay ⸻ BREAKDOWN (Metal – slow, crushing) NO—ANNOUNCEMENT NO—CROWD JUST—PRESSURE JUST—PROUD BUILT—ALONE BUILT—CLEAN BUILT—FROM—EVERY—THING—I—MEAN ⸻ BUILD-UP (spoken, firm) I don’t rush destiny. I prepare for it. I don’t chase respect. I move in a way that demands it. That’s Shadow. ⸻ FINAL CHORUS (full force) 🔥 SHADOW MOVES IN SILENCE 🔥 But the impact’s loud 🔥 I DON’T NEED ATTENTION 🔥 I need results right now From the grind to the calm to the strength I command I don’t talk—I expand 🔥 SHADOW MOVES IN SILENCE 🔥 Then I take what I planned ⸻ OUTRO (quiet, confident) They’ll notice eventually. They always do. By the time they ask how it happened… It’s already too late. That’s Shadow.
